Zusammenfassung:A tower section for a wind turbine, comprising a tensioning arrangement having at least one tensioning device attached to three or more attachment points associated with the tower section, wherein those attachment points are located proximate to an end of the tower section. The or each tensioning device is under tension and provides radial stiffness to the tower section. The invention also relates to a method for assembling a tower for a wind turbine, the method comprising: providing a tower section; attaching a tensioning arrangement including at least one tensioning device between three or more attachment points associated with the tower section and located proximate to an end thereof; and applying tension to the at least one tensioning device so as to provide radial stiffness to the
